Kilowatt per square meter to watt per square centimeter Conversion
1 kilowatt per square meter (kW/m²) is equal to 0.1 watt per square centimeter (W/cm²).
1 kW/m² = 0.1 W/cm²
or
1 W/cm² = 10 kW/m²
Formula
To convert a heat flux density from kilowatt per square meter (kW/m²) to watt per square centimeter (W/cm²), divide the heat flux density in kilowatt per square meter by 10
h(W/cm²) = h(kW/m²) / 10
Examples:
Convert 1000 kilowatt per square meter to watt per square centimeter:
h(W/cm²) = 1000kW/m² / 10 = 100 W/cm²
